Alternate title: Google admits Reddit protests make it harder to find helpful search results
Search engines have been becoming increasingly useless for years at this point as SEO gentrification runs rampant and more content moves behind walled gardens like Discord and anything that requires a subscription. Not to mention that Google enshittifies just like everything else. The amount of overly verbose garbage I have to trek through just to not get an answer to my query is far too high. God fucking help us now that AI can generate content, which will be even more garbage to sift through.
You know, that was a good article until the author took a completely unnecessary and irrelevant swipe at Biden; at which point I completely lost interest in anything the author had to say.
I’m really fucking tired of political bullshit being embedded into every-goddamned-thing I read.
It was good during and after that part too.
lmao. You are in a thread about a protest and its consequences reading an article from a socialist magazine about capitalism and its detrimental effects on search engines. You are very clearly not tired of reading about politics, but instead are just upset that your guy got off-handedly dunked on. It was an extremely small portion of the article. Get over it dude.
Biden’s not my guy. He’s way too far to the right for me, and way too interested in maintaining the status quo. Give me a leader that doesn’t mind breaking a few noses and telling the GOP exactly where they can shove their christofascist bullshit.
But the unnecessary, irrelevant jab was just lazy, shitty writing; trying to score a couple giggle points at the cost of the author’s journalistic integrity. It was out of place, hamfisted, and just plain lazy.
Besides, the internet is bigger than US politics. I’m sure Brazil or Luxembourg doesn’t give a shit about our politics insofar as it doesn’t affect them.
So beating ass and putting dipshits in their place is fine, yet an article writer making a less than one sentence dunk on a politician is a step too far? Bro, if you were a Biden fan your butthurt would at least be understandable, but this is just dumb. Reconsider what you are doing. And to reiterate: get over it.

Oh boo hoo. I would have bitched if it was a completely-out-of-place swipe at any politician, even ones I hate. I would have bitched just as much if it was an anti-trump joke. It was irrelevant and obnoxious, shitty, opportunistic writing.
I don’t give fuck one about Biden, but I do give fuck one about journalistic integrity, which the author seems to lack.

Yes. It is completely irrelevant to the point.

I remember using the internet before smartphones were ubiquitous. At the time, I was thinking that we would be entering a period of unprecedented enlightenment with all the easy access to all the information a person could want. Lol. Lmao.

Sometimes it just straight up ignores my search modifiers to send me shit. I know the tech illiterate need their hands held, but bruh.

It feels like AI wrote it already. Try googling a windows error now. Instead of getting forums or a blog you get 10 shitty websites with lists of generic fixes that end with them recommending their shitty software that will absolutely not fix your issue.
